Training – Do it ahead of time !

As I was heading to a listing appointment in Sandpoint yesterday I noticed a group of Firemen grouped at a station. Curious I turned around. Cars had been stacked to represent a serious accident. They were training for what hopefully they will never come to deal with. We expect proficency from professions such as firemen. It also made me get to wondering how many people wait till it is already needed before they train.

I believe sports relate to so many life instances. How many times have you heard one of the greats talk about the years of training he/she did prior to actually being at the playing level that needed that type of focus. The point is they were able to step up to the position, at a moments notice in some cases, because they had been training ahead of time.

I would hate to be trapped in a car and have the first responder on the phone asking for help or pulling out a manual. I want them there, in the moment, and confident. That only comes with training and education.

What are you preparing yourself for? Do you have a goal for larger gross over the next years? If so what are you doing to prepare yourself for that upward movement? Don’t think you will learn it when it gets here. You will miss the opportunity if it comes at all. Training – Do it ahead of time !
